The home of Seven Hills, Saint Naluo cathedral.
Father Anthony stood on a high place and looked down below. Even in the daytime, the city of faith was still full of candlelight, and the sound of devout prayers filled the place like mist.
It’s just that this sacred belief has a bit of iron and steel killing.
The streets are empty, there are no pedestrians, there are only one fully armed Knight after another. Most of the residents have been deported, and a few pious people stayed behind and continued unfinished prayers.
The entire Seven Hills was completely closed. Outsiders only thought it was an unknown blockade, but Anthony knew that it was a state of war now. Whether it was the new Order or the Saint Knights, all the forces were mobilized. , Approaching and stationing towards Seven Hills.
Many people have noticed that the atmosphere is not right, but they don’t know what happened. The new pope seems to be about to start a war, but the front line of the war seems to be the place of Seven Hills. What’s even more bizarre is that no one Can’t figure out who the enemy is.
Now the world war is imminent, but in fact it has nothing to do with the Holy Gospel Papal State. With the development of industrial technology, the dominance of Holy Gospel Papal State is continuously declining, and in recent years it has almost fallen to the bottom. Few people care about this once powerful country of faith.
There is no huge industrial area, and there is no sophisticated firearms. Apart from the faith, what is left here is faith, stupid and decadent faith, and worthless faith.
Many believer feel that this war has nothing to do with them. He can’t think of any reason why Holy Gospel Papal State can be declared war, but they may never guess the real situation.
Holy Gospel Papal State not only cannot stay out of the matter, they are also the origin and core of this kind of war. Here is the final battlefield, but the curtain has not yet been lifted.
All the Demon Hunter people on active duty in the New Order were mobilized and gathered. They gathered at the Saint Naluo cathedral to prevent any possible crisis.
Most of the Demon Hunter people also don’t know what the situation is, but they obeyed the order and guarded in the shadows.
Anthony withdrew his gaze. The past few days have been calm, as if the war is coming, just an illusory lie, but unfortunately, he is one of the few people in Evangelion Church who knows everything.
He knew exactly what would happen next.
“You look worried.”
Samuel walked over, wearing heavy armor, his smooth surface shimmering.
“So what happened? How long do we have to do this?”
He asked a few more questions. Samuel was standing next to Anthony. Under so many days of blockade, many people were very confused and didn’t know what the new pope was going to do.
It stands to reason that these Demon Hunter people should chase Demon all over the world, but they are now trapped here, wearing these fancy armors, guarding here like guards.
“A strong enemy is coming, but he hasn’t come yet… but always will come.”
Anthony fuzzy explained that he wanted to light a cigarette and touched it, but only found one that was squeezed crookedly, and the tobacco in it was about to be exposed.
Lorenzo’s message safely arrived at Saint Naluo cathedral, but it was a little different from what Lorenzo had expected. In fact, the new Order already knew most of the secrets, but it was not as detailed and clear as Lorenzo’s account.
As for the source of these secrets…
Anthony glanced at the corridor behind him, which extended to the door of paradise, and in the deep darkness, a faint prayer could be heard.
“How is Your Excellency? I haven’t seen him for a long time.”
Seeing Anthony still didn’t want to talk, Samuel took the topic elsewhere.
“Fortunately, I am going to report to him.” Anthony said.
be that as it may, but he did not act, but stood here with Samuel, as if enjoying the last peace.
Taking a deep breath, Anthony sighed long. For some reason, it was a day, but the memory couldn’t help but spring up at this moment.
“It reminds me of a night many years ago…”
Samuel did not speak, he listened quietly.
“You should know this, we later called that night ‘Night of Advent’.”
Anthony whispered, for fear of awakening the demon sleeping in the dark.
“The Holy Night of Coming.”
Samuel replied, Anthony nodded, and then remembering something, he asked curiously.
“What were you doing that night? Samuel.”
“Me?”
Samuel recalled that it was all many years ago. He was just an ordinary person at the time and didn’t know the darkness at all. He tried to remember.
“I seem to be in Florence, that night I remember seeing the blazing fire here, and I shouted out my friends,” Samuel smiled helplessly, “We thought it was a grand festival, yelling Now, do you want to sneak in and take a look.”
“Then what?”
Anthony couldn’t help laughing when he heard Samuel saying this. That night, Saint Naluo cathedral was the closest place to hell.
“Then…then there were soldiers pouring into the street…”
The long-lasting memory was awakened, and for a moment Samuel trembled slightly, this strange and familiar feeling, as if what he had just recalled was someone else’s memory.
There was a little panic in his tone for some reason, and it took so long in a flash.
“We were talking and discussing what happened. These soldiers are different from the soldiers we usually see. They are well equipped and hold sharp swords… I only learned later that they are the Knights.” [19459002 ]
“Have you never seen Knight before?”
“No,” Samuel’s eyes were a little gloomy, “Our family is very poor and lives in a very remote place, and I usually work in the laundry near the Tiber river. It is very hard and I rarely have the opportunity to see them. Even though they were protecting the old cardinals from traveling, the street was blocked by a heavy crowd. I tried to jump up, but I didn’t jump high enough.”
“You are jumping high enough now.” Anthony said.
Hearing this, Samuel laughed, and he continued.
“Seeing them wearing armor… It’s so beautiful.
I had this idea at that time. I wanted to be a member of the Knights. You know what happened. I participated in the conscription. It was only one time, and there was no limit on conscription. Give me a chance. “
“After the Night of Advent, Evangelion Church suffered a lot of damage, not only the Demon Hunter people, but also the temple Knight. We urgently need fresh blood.” Anthony thought of the conscription.
“Where are your parents?” He asked again.
“They are all alive. After I became the knight, they were very happy,” Samuel said. “They are pious believer. I have never seen them so happy.”
“I bought a small house on the bank of the Tiber river. They are living there. Looking from the balcony on the second floor, you can see the bank of the river where we used to work.”
“Where are your friends?”
“They made the same wish as I. Fortunately, we have all become members of the Knights…” At this point, Samuel’s words paused, “It’s a pity that those guys failed Survived the secret blood trial.”
The two were silent, like mourning for those who died. The dim Sun in the distance gradually fell, but the Seven Hills covered by rays of light showed no signs of darkness, and more and more candles were shining. At the same time, drag the city into the sea of candles.
“Want to listen to my night?”
Anthony took the crooked cigarette and squeezed it firmly with his hands to make it look better.
Ignite, breathe, a faint white mist rises, covering the two of them.
Anthony felt a tingling numb, and the effect of tobacco internal anesthesia made him feel as if he was drinking alcohol, which made him feel a lot more comfortable.
“My experience is better than that of you. To be precise, it’s a lot better,” Anthony smiled, with the huge scar on his cheek twisted like a snake. “I was born in a wealthy family. There are pious believer at home. It can be said that since I was born, the so-called faith has been engraved into my soul inside.”
“I lived up to the expectations of my parents. I joined the Knight Group after graduating from the Academy of Gods. Everything went well until that night.”
Anthony repeated.
“That night…”
“I was stationed at the post at the time, and then suddenly received news…Secret Order No. 13, the Knights of the Saint Naluo cathedral will be encircled and suppressed, hunting down all the Demon and the Demon Hunter people.” [19459002 ]
There is a scarlet breath in the words. This is Anthony’s Night of Advent. It is all in the same night, but everyone’s night is so different.
“Then there was nothing too tortuous in the plot. We replaced the Holy Silver bullet that suppressed Demon. This was very precious. It was the first time I saw it, but in fact it was no different from ordinary bullets.
It was the Demon who appeared in the field of vision first, but they were all quite easy to deal with, and they didn’t even need Holy Silver ammunition. Ordinary live ammunition could kill them… In fact, I was aware of these Holy Silver bullets since then. Who is the silver bullet to deal with?
We first sealed off the Seven Hills, and then advanced towards Saint Naluo cathedral. As we approached, the erosion became more intense. Some Knights began to be alienated. We chose to stay in a safe area and hunt all the escaped guys. . “
Anthony was expressionless, as if he was telling another person’s memory and had nothing to do with him.
“Actually, not many Demons escaped after that. Even if some Demon escaped, they were all wounded and can be killed at will.
Then the Demon Hunter people appeared. They were completely unprepared by us. Maybe they didn’t expect we would shoot at them. I was scared at the time. We knew the existence of the Demon Hunter people and knew their strength. , We are ready to damage more than half.
But those Demon Hunter people are not very strong. They look weak. Some people are wounded like Demon, and some people have begun to alienate. We fired a salvo of Holy Silver bullets. Silver Binding Bolt triggered…
It stands to reason that the battle should be easy, but in fact we couldn’t stop them at all. They were at first lost and then angry.
Only then did I clearly know the power of the Demon Hunter people, and when they decline, they will still be the Demon Hunter people after all.
They easily killed most of the Knights, the corpses filled the streets, and blood flowing into a river. “
Anthony’s face also showed the same confusion in the memory, while Samuel on the side was stiff, not knowing what to say.
“I was lucky to survive. I and the other survivors retreated to the city gate, and more Holy Silver bullets were fired… Then there was the death pile, and we piled them all to death. [19459002 ]
Actually, I’m not quite clear. Is this count as what we killed, because everyone who died of Demon Hunter, their wounds are constantly pouring out of silver blood, and the silver blood soon solidified , Shaping their corpses into statues, staying there forever, speaking of which, we later spent a lot of effort to dispose of those corpses. “
Anthony said, touching his cheek, flicking the hideous scar.
“Then it was him.
That was a Demon Hunter called Michael, with a blazing fire on his body. The rays of light were so strong that we couldn’t see him clearly. He could only shoot in the direction of the light, shooting continuously, Use Holy Silver and human life to stop him from moving forward. “
Listening to Anthony’s words, Samuel almost held his breath.
Probably Anthony hadn’t noticed either, his face showed a look that Samuel had never seen before.
In the impression of most people, Anthony has always been that cold look, just like the new pope, his face is covered by a cold mask, as if nothing can crush his heart.
But now Anthony’s eyes have never been confused, like a lost lamb, waiting for the light to come on.
“We couldn’t stop him. He finally broke through the line of defense. The iron gate was easily melted into a big hole by him. He escaped with a few wounded Demon Hunter men.
But this guy did not escape far. He knew very well that in their current state, they could not escape far. This guy turned back and forced us into the city. The city wall that should have besieged them is now imprisoned. Up to us. “
Anthony’s words stopped. He didn’t continue speaking, as if he was thinking and remembering. After a long time, he continued.
“In short, he is still dead.
The flame on his body became weaker and weaker, and it was difficult to continue to melt the Holy Silver bullets that shot at him, followed by the falling lance, some penetrated him, some nailed to the ground, and the temple Knights were also killed Many people started screaming when they broke their guts, but I am different. I have a pious belief. I will not be afraid. I will dedicate everything to God. “
Anthony raised his right hand, and saw several wounds gradually cracked open on his skin, with gray and black stains all over it, and he held a lance tightly.
“It was like this…”
Anthony looked towards the illusory silhouette in front of him, after so long, the memory is still so clear.
“I clenched lance with this hand, rushed towards him, and killed him with one blow. I penetrated his heart, but he also made a counterattack and threw the hot Broken Sword. [19459002 ]
The Broken Sword was supposed to split my head, but he lost his way and only scratched half of my face.
Think about it, he has gone through so long of fighting and killed that many people. He is already very tired, and there is nothing wrong with making some mistakes. “
The cigarette burned out and burned Anthony’s fingers, but he didn’t care, just watched the shining fire star burn his skin.
“The flame went out, and we saw him clearly. We found that even without us, this guy probably wouldn’t live long. A hole was cut in his stomach. There were no internal organs, only black. One piece, and the continual drip of silver blood, he stimulated power, but accelerated the meltdown of the Silver Binding Bolt.
I also probably know why he missed it. He only has one left arm. The right arm may have been lost in Saint Naluo cathedral. If he is left-handed, I should not survive. “
Throw away the fire star in your hand and watch it burn to ashes.
“Even in this way, he killed that many people, unimaginable what he experienced in Saint Naluo cathedral, and unimaginable, what are the powerful enemies who fought with him?”
Anthony said indifferently.
“This is my night, and I have been promoted since then, probably because I gave Michael the last blow, but I know very well that he was not killed by me.” [19459002 ]
In the illusory memory, the burning silhouette gradually dimmed, fell into the silver blood inside, and plunged into eternal solidification.
“Later, I kept thinking, what exactly did Michael kill by? I’m afraid he can’t say it clearly.”
Samuel didn’t answer, he just stood there blankly, thinking a lot of words in his mind, but looking at Anthony’s confused expression, he couldn’t speak.
Anthony smiled again, put on a hypocritical mask, and ended the conversation.
“Well, it’s time for me to meet Your Excellency.”
